I would like to be able to write an app in source coder. When programming in z80 ASM, you can switch from "Program" to "App", but when you try to test or export the app it says that "Signing Apps is not yet implemented," and I can't find a way to get around this.

MateoC found a way around that, and made Cesium an app. You can ask him for info.

I know that you can assemble your code with something like Spasm or Brass, then sign the assembled program with RabbitSign, then send that assembled program to a calculator/an emulator, but it would just be so much easier if all of that could just be done is source coder. I'd imagine that it shouldn't be too hard: we already have an assembler and we can send programs to an emulator, so all that is left is signing an app before developing apps becomes that much easier.

The green banner that appears whenever the program gets automatically saved is getting really annoying to me. It keeps popping up when I try to click on a certain part of code, resulting in me clicking 2 lines too high!
I like that it tells me that the program is saved, I just don't like that it moves the box of code. Instead of a drop down banner, I'd like to see one of these solutions:
1. (most crude solution) The banner drops down, but covers up the tabs
2. An empty space dedicated for this banner when it appears
3. The banner to appear on the side
4. Anywhere that doesn't interfere with me inputting code!

Maybe when it does save, to notify the user, the background could flash a shade of green?

I like the way GitHub hosts code A LOT. I like it sometimes more than SC because of the way it looks. Clean, and I like the font. The way it is right now is pretty nice. I'd just like it to be whiter in the code area, and similar colors for syntax highlighting to the ones on GitHub.

Please (please) implement comment blocks. You know, the ones that start with /* and end with */

I don't know if anyone is working on these suggestions, but they would be greatly appreciated

Sure I am. I was already 'busy' with rewriting the code for removing single-line comments (sometimes they removed too much whitespace before them), so I might also take a look at multiple-line comments

HTML:
The #tokenize_result div needs to be moved to the bottom of the .token_pane div.

JS:
In the setEdMsgBad function, tokres.text needs to be tokres.html.

This is one of those times where using jQuery is entirely unnecessary. If you look at the jQuery source, .html and .text are literally just wrapper functions for the .innerHTML and .innerText DOM attributes. According to my testing, the jQuery method is over 100 times slower on the latest version of Chrome. (Then again, I'm extremely anti-jQuery. Why do developers insert large amounts of relatively slow code? It doesn't even add any new functionality!)

Try out Village, a cool Esolang!
Some, but not all, things and people care about not who you are, but what you can do. they may seem odd, but are good judges of your skill and ability.

The speed of a library is dependent on many different things. For example, the browser and machine you are using. Other factors to take into consideration is whether you're loading Jquery from another source on the internet (if so, include the library locally), are you using the minified file (if not, use the minified file), are you using the slim version that excludes deprecated code, etc. All those things can affect the speed of Jquery/a JS library.

I recommended SC instead of TI Connect CE to a guy on YouTube who was trying to make a TI BASIC tutorial. This was his response:

Quote:

Also that online IDE I chose not to use it because the UI looks like its from the 16th century and I wanted to present my audience with something newer and much more specific for their needs.

It's kinda harsh, but I think SC is in need for some visual update.

Then that Youtuber clearly cares about the wrong things, like usefulness and functionality. I've spent quite a bit of time over the years gradually updating SC3's styling to be as inoffensive as possible. Happy to field specific suggestions of what could be improved, though; having it be more appealing to new users is certainly important.
